Congratulations to the seiyuu parents!

(I wonder if Yuki Kaji and Ayana Taketatsu are next given they congratulated both parents...).

Good luck to Kitano and Kotori on the pregnancy. I hope Yuma isn't hurt by this news as much as the marriage or maybe he never noticed because he was busy with a card game. We'll never know the true story of this ZeXal sequel.

You probably forgot it, but they are awaiting a child already (announced it back in June): https://twitter.com/Ayana_take/status/1542342169507373060

I see many people have started to have kids especially the voice actresses here. Having kids is not a bad idea, but environment is also an important factor to consider when you are deciding to have kids, given the current global warming developments mainly caused by human activities which emits tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Imagine the amounts of carbon dioxide produced by each person born on this earth. Is there an effective way to control the world's population and how can we reduce harm on the planet?

Well, I mean, most of the voice actresses announcing their births/marriages on this site are entering their mid-30s, and on average that's when most people decide to start having kids (due to factors like a higher financial stability and age).

Maybe we should control the amount of babies we produce, like two or three should do fine?

No offense, but it's kind of insensitive to use this as a criticism for voice actors having kids. Having kids is not a problem especially when Japan is facing a population decline. Also, enacting a law against having children is going to have its drawbacks. China did the one-child policy for a while and a big criticism is that some parents ended up abandoning their kids if they were girls on the basis that men would have an advantage in providing for the family.

Forgive me if I said something wrong. I am not really criticising the voice actors for having babies. And I am not against any people for having babies. But what I am trying to say is that everything we do on this planet has its limit, as the resources are finite, so we should be moderate especially in having children. Of course, I agree limiting the children to one two or three child isn't helping in balancing the population. That depends on the needs of each family and couples, on whether they want to have more than that or not. This is just a recommended range.

Sure, but population control isn't something you should discuss under a post about two voice actors celebrating their pregnancy. Your post comes off as "How dare they have kids because they're destroying the planet."

Yeah, its a bit off-topic. I'll end my discussion here.
